1:1 COACHING FOR WOMEN

BE BOLD.

BE BRAVE.

BREAK BARRIERS.

1:1 TAILORED COACHING FOR WISE AND WONDERFUL WOMEN

Every extraordinary journey begins with a single bold decision: to trust your intuition and follow your heart, even when the path ahead seems uncertain.

Your Coaching Journey

The Courage to Listen Within

Society trains us to follow external validation and conventional wisdom. But the most innovative creators throughout history share one trait: they trusted their inner voice when everyone else said "impossible."

External Voices - The cacophony of opinions, expectations, and "shoulds" that bombard us daily from society, family, and media.

Inner Wisdom - That quiet, persistent knowing that emerges when you create space to listen - often contradicting conventional paths but aligned with your authentic purpose.

What Playing Small Costs You

We've been conditioned to believe that playing it safe protects us from failure.

The truth? Playing small guarantees a different kind of failure: The failure to discover what you're truly capable of achieving.

The Real Risks of Playing Small:

  • Living with the haunting question: "What if I had given it a go?"

  • Watching others bring your ideas to life

  • Settling for mediocrity when greatness was within reach

  • Losing your sense of aliveness and purpose

Be Bold, Be Brave, Break Barriers: What It Really Means

Being bold isn't about fame, fortune, or external metrics. It's about expanding beyond self-imposed limitations and creating impact aligned with your unique gifts.

Passion-Driven Action

Pursuing projects that light you up from within, where time disappears, and energy multiplies.

Meaningful Impact

Creating work that solves real problems and touches lives in ways only your unique perspective can.

The Barriers We Face

Every creative faces obstacles - both external and self-imposed. Recognising these barriers is the first step toward breaking through them.

  • Fear of Failure - The paralysing worry that you'll fall short, be judged, or waste resources on an unsuccessful venture

  • Imposter Syndrome - The persistent feeling that you're a fraud, despite evidence of your capabilities and accomplishments

  • Perfectionism - The endless pursuit of flawlessness that prevents you from shipping your work and learning through iteration

  • Comparison Trap - Measuring your chapter against someone else's chapter, destroying your motivation

Liberation from "Should"

Releasing expectations about your "proper" path to forge one that resonates with your authentic self.

FOUNDATION

Ground your thinking.

Shift perspective. Begin with clarity.

YOUR COACHING JOURNEY

WITH CHILLI SAGE

ACTION

Take the leap.

Turn insight into movement.

GROWTH

Evolve with purpose.

Lead and live with intention.

FOUNDATION

Breaking Through: Mindset Shifts

The most powerful barriers exist in our minds. These transformative mindset shifts can liberate your creative potential:

  • From failure to feedback - View every "failure" as valuable data pointing you towards success

  • From perfect to progress - Embrace the power of iteration over the paralysis of perfection

  • From criticism to courage - Recognise that bold work attracts both admirers and critics - both validate your impact

ACTION

The Leap: Practical Steps Forward

Transformation requires both mindset shifts and tactical action. These practical steps help translate inspiration into tangible progress:

Identify your values that you want to lean into, live by, and hold at your core.

  • Take the first “leap” - Take one small, imperfect action today. Don't wait for perfect conditions or complete clarity - they never come.

  • Identify which fears are legitimate risks versus emotional resistance.

  • Find your courage tribe – choose your connections who will support you, champion you and hold you accountable

  • Create new habits that support the new, wiser version of you that aligns with your values, and your authentic self.

GROWTH

Your Permission Slip

  • Trust your intuition - even when it contradicts conventional wisdom or what others expect of you

  • Make glorious mistakes, and extract their valuable lessons without shame or self-judgment

  • Redefine success according to your own values, not society's metrics or others' expectations

  • Change direction without explanation or apology when your heart calls you to a new path

This permission never expires and cannot be revoked - not by critics, loved ones, or even yourself.

Your Heart Is Calling. Will You Answer?

The world needs your unique vision.

Every time someone follows their heart and breaks barriers, they create a ripple effect that inspires others to do the same. Your courage today could catalyse someone else's breakthrough tomorrow.

"The biggest risk isn't taking a chance on your dreams. It's reaching the end of your life wondering what might have been."

Testimonials: Stories of Change

  • Working with Nicky has been such a gift. She’s a truly wonderful woman with so much genuine care and compassion. What I love most is her ability to guide me in a way that empowers me to help myself, she doesn’t give answers she helps me find them within.

    Our sessions are always supportive, uplifting and I come away feeling lighter, clearer, and more confident. Nicky has an incredible way of creating a safe space where growth feels natural and achievable.

    I would highly recommend  coaching with Nicky. I’m so grateful for her support and wisdom.

    - Tara

  • Nicky helped me see where I was limiting myself and holding myself back and she did so with warmth and generosity.

    Coaching with Nicky helped me to loosen the grip of my self-limiting beliefs and be more open to what might be possible. From here I could more easily see what I needed to do from a place of experimentation and spaciousness.

    I continue to carry this perspective and tap into this more expansive and playful approach to life and it’s life changing! Thanks Nicky!  

    - Paula

  • Nicky is an exceptional coach. As a trained coach myself, I initially believed I could manage my own growth and reflection. I assumed I had the tools to coach myself through challenges. But as an entrepreneur stepping into unfamiliar territory, I quickly realised that even coaches need coaching. Working with Nicky gave me the space and guidance to go deeper than I could on my own—to challenge my thinking, uncover blind spots, and consider new perspectives and possibilities.

    Nicky excels in this space. She brings a powerful blend of insight, warmth, and support to every session. She's not only personable and inspiring but also incredibly knowledgeable, diligent, and thorough in her approach. Her coaching has empowered me and renewed my confidence in the path I'm carving out for myself.  I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking transformative coaching.

    - Jillette

  • I’ve had four coaching sessions with Nicky, and she is brilliant.

    I was feeling quite “stuck” and melancholy. I’m a middle aged, empty nester, expat missing home, growing tired of the 9 to 5 work grind and my life. I was just feeling down – not at all myself.

    Nicky was able to guide me through my jumbled thoughts, especially the ones I was ruminating on, the thoughts keeping me up at night, crushing my spirit. She and I developed a plan, and with daily goals set for me to achieve, followed up with weekly check-ins with Nicky, I literally feel like a new person!

    I am very grateful for her sensible, pragmatic help. Her guidance has given me clarity and allowed me to develop strategies to set and achieve my personal goals.

    - Jude 

Bold energy. Calm wisdom.

I bring challenge and compassion. I hold space and ask the questions that shift everything.

Real change, not quick fixes.

We'll slow down to go deeper - so you move forward with clarity that lasts.

No judgment. No pretence.

Grounded, real conversations. Coaching is a space where you don't need to "have it all together."
